This place is a great place to go to and leave the stress and craziness that comes along in life! Dale and his crew are the best! Friendly helpful and quite frankly just a great bunch of people! Always putting people first is one of many reasons Galactic Comics is my choice for comics collectibles and toys. Make mine GALACTIC COMICS!!

Galactic Comics is the ideal comic book store. Its huge, with a large selection of new and vintage comics, along with a ton of toys. The staff is friendly, and the owner, Dale, is fair and honest in the way he deals with customers. If you want to sell comics, he is up front and explains how he arrives at his offer. He makes what can normally be an anxious exchange easy and transparent. I believe this is why he gets such incredible collections coming into the store. Ive been to comic book stores all over the world, and Galactic Comics is among the best Ive ever seen. Were lucky to have such a world-class store in Florence, SC.

Galactic Comics is the absolute best comic shop in SC and possibly the Country. The owner Dale has poured his heart and soul into this place and you can tell as soon as you walk in. Looking for something special? Dale or one of the fantastic team members can most likely have it or can get it for you!If youre a superhero, youll feel like one when you go to Galactic Comics in Florence!I am a fan.Michael MillerProud GC Shopper!

Galactic comics is the best place to come if your interested into comics!! The owner, Dale, is super nice!! Me and my friend were competing this weekend and he was kind enough to give us 1 free pop. And then we good a good placement on our dance and he gave us another one for free!! Like I said, hes super nice and you should definitely go there!!!

Visited today and was amazed by the selection. Im always on the lookout for gold and silver comics and this place didnt disappoint. Great selection of graded and raw comics. Prices were already good but the owner really hooked me up with a bulk purchase. Im not necessarily a toy collector but they have an enormous selection of vintage GI Joe and other lines. This store is a few hours away but I wont hesitate to make the drive again. 5 stars PLUS, because they exceed all comic stores Ive previously been to!

Review №27

We came from Sumter with over 150 comics. He looked through them and said there were 4 worth money. He offered $20 for those and nothing for the rest as he said they are filler stock. We feel like he took advantage of us becuase we spent over 100 dollars on his stock to complete our collections. Didnt give a discount for the comics he deemed filler stock. I really feel he took advantage of us considering we went buying so much. He also assisted in finding the ones we needed to complete our collection and gave us comics that didnt even go with that collection on two different sets. Would not recommend this establishment. And would really like some of our money back. He is the expert he shoukd kbow what comics go with what sets. We lost out on 40 dollars just on the two sets that he picked the collects on. Just really disapointed.

Great selection of comics, collectibles and more. They have hard to find merchandise and I was able to find an item I had been looking for for years at an amazing price. I wish I wasnt so far away or Id visit almost everyday if I could. If you love comics, Funko pops, collectibles and love being a geek this is the place for you.

Dale and his staff do a great job at creating a family-like community. They make it a point to build relationships with everyone that walks through their doors. They will take their time to make sure you find whatever book, toy, or collectible you are looking for. I’m thankful for such businesses in our growing town.

Review №68

I don’t live in the Pee Dee area. In fact, I don’t live in the United States. My parents reside in the area and when I visit them, I’m always heading out to local comic shops. Recently I got word from my parents that a new store opened in the Florence area. At the time my parents informed me of this information, I was in Brazil, and desperately searching for a book I needed to add to my collection. My mom contacted Galactic Comics and not only did they have the book I was looking for, but they also held a copy for me so my mother could swing by and pick it up for me. My mother later told me that the people at the store were incredibly kind and friendly. Well, I just arrived home to visit my parents for a few weeks and I had a chance to visit the store two days ago. I was in heaven. I am a serious collector, so I was thrilled to see books from several publishers. It’s not just Marvel and DC books...it’s Valiant, Image, Dark Horse, et cetera! To put the icing on the cake, the back issues are rife with excellent titles for very fair prices. When I arrived at the counter to pay for the books I had the pleasure to meet the owner, and he was one of the most affable and genial store owners I’ve ever met. He asked me about living abroad and I could see he was completely sincere. In other words, he wasn’t being friendly just to drum up business. He’s a legitimately kind person, and that’s who I prefer doing business with. I’ll be home for a few more weeks and I’ll probably visit Galactic Comics, every day I’m here! Fantastic shop!
